Leaving by death

by Emily Barclay   Dec 16, 2004


I'm sorry i wasn't always nice,
I'm sorry i wasn't always there,
I'm sorry I could never see,
That what we had was rare,

I don't have a chance now,
To tell you how I feel,
Your gone for good now,
Just leaving my heart to heal,

Last thing you said,
Was baby I love you,
Your heart died then,
Now mine has too,

I'm still in love though,
With someone who doesn't exist,
My other half is missing,
Left me wondering in the mist,

Talking for hours on the phone,
Thinking of getting back together,
You promised me boo,
Promised we would be together for ever,

We talked so calmly,
Me completely unaware,
In a few hours he would be gone,
Him not knowing how I care,

You talked about me before you left,
And I wasn't even there,
I wonder what I was doing,
Why I didn't feel my heart tear,

Your body was disintegrating,
But all you could talk about was me,
Saying you loved me and you were sorry,
What you were sorry about I still don't see,

Tell me who am I going to call,
When i fall out with my family,
Who's going to make me confident,
Make me confident enough to be,

I cant take another hollow moment,
I cant take another empty look,
I'm gone now,
Everything that was me you took,

I'm at your funeral now,
Watching everyone around me cry,
But I don't shed a tear,
As I know you did not die,

You live on inside of me,
As your love I still hold,
I'm everything you were,
I'm everything you told,

Around me are all your pictures,
Remind me of your voice,
I hear all the sweet things you said to me,
Was coming here the right choice,

I Walk up to your casket,
I look and you seem to stare back to,
I mouth I love you gently,
Knowing this will be the last time I see you,

I wish you hadn't gone,
I would have had so much more to say,
I would have done so much,
If only you hadn't died that day.
